Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

For the first time in trade paperback, the book in which one of the most celebrated biographer/historians of our time looks back at his own early life and gives us a remarkable account of World War II in the Pacific, of what it looked like, sounded like, smelled like, and, most of all, what it felt like to one who underwent all but the ultimate of its experiences.<P>Back Bay takes pride in making William Manchester's intense, stirring, and impassioned memoir available to a new generation of readers.<BR>-- A book that will enthrall readers interested in the experiences and exploits of America's "greatest generation."
